multiple domains pointing to one IP

Is this possible?

I bought a domain, let’s call it horses.com, then bought some server space from a host. After following their directions and changing the DNS, then FTP-ing my site, “horses.com” shows up correctly. Then, I bought another domain, let’s call it bananas.com. It is unrelated to horses.com, but I have so much server space reserved for horses.com I’d like to use some of it for bananas.com. Is there a way the Host can host more than one domain? Say, for instance, can the user type in “Bananas.com” anc be directed to one of the horses.com pages (like horses.com/bananas) or something like that? If so, how do I set that up? Or, does each domain need it’s own host, so to speak?

Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
jinx

@PunkSktBrdr01Oct 19.2003 — It is quite possible to do this. I've never done it myself, but I have cPanel in my hosting package, and it lets you do it in there. If you don't have a control panel that lets you do it, talk to the hosting company. They may or may not allow you to do it, though.

@jinxauthorOct 23.2003 — Thanks for the reply. I went to the CPanel of my hosting provider and saw a way to do it. I'm pretty happy with the results, just took some clicking around to get there....
